Chapter 2

  • Amelia Pearls walked into the villa she and Ethan Dan Greg has been living since they got married. He told her he had bought the villa for them to live as couple, though he had a house he lived in before they got married.
  • She unlocked the door with her keys and went in. It was going towards night time already, so the sitting room was dark. She turned the lights on. She directly went upstairs, where their bedroom was.
  • Few metres away from their bedroom door, she began to hear some strange funny sound from the bedroom.
  • After Ethan made it clear that he wanted to divorce her, he rarely came home. And when he did, it was usually after she had retired to bed and he will leave very early the next morning. Like he didn't want to even see her again.
  • This hurt her very much but she could only swallow her grievances and only hope he would rethink his decisions after being away from her for a while.
  • Now, she was hearing sounds from their bedroom, it could only mean one thing; he was inside.
  • She was happy. Maybe he has really had a rethink about his decisions. And right now, she wanted to just go in and try to beg him again.
  • Feeling delighted, she hastily walked towards the bedroom door but halted her steps decisively.
  • The sounds were like the voices of people present in the room. And it sounded familiar. Is he not the only one in the room?
  • She felt her stomach churned painfully and her heart beat accelerate. For some unknown reason, she felt nervous and reluctant to open the door.
  • However, she still opened it and walked in.
  • At the very next moment, she gasped in shock at the scene in front of her.
  • He and a lady were both lying on the sofa. His muscular and broad figure was hovering the lady's petite frame, lying on the sofa.
  • When they heard the door open, they swiftly turned to look at the door. After seeing who pushed the door open, their shocked gaze turned lazy and nonchalant.
  • They just continue what they were doing, not even sparing her a glance.
  • Amelia widened her eyes in disbelief and shock. She felt her legs go numb and they soon gave way. She slumped down to the floor with both hands, covering her mouth.
  • " Ethan..." She called slowly as tears rolled down her cheeks.
  • But he just looked at her nonchalantly as if she was insane and he didn't know her.
  • "Madison Puff, why.........."
  • ----------
  • At the top floor of a building, inside a dark room; a tall figure sat on a chair, leaning on the table in front of him. As his dark eyes were fixed on items on the desk.
  • On the large desk, various albums and pictures were layed on it. The pictures had the photo of a young girl. She was grinning widely as she took a big bite of a banana flavored ice cream. The ice smeared on her cheeks. while the other, she was busy ruffling the hair of a young boy on school uniform. He was trying to escape from her grip but she never gave him that chance. And the rest were pictures were she was rather standing alone in casual clothes or in uniform or rather standing with a guy or a group of people.
  • In all the pictures, the girl's face always had a bright smile, that made her innocent big eyes shone and revealed her clean set of well arranged white teeth.
  • This smile, this was the smile that attracted him. Her smile was too contagious, and matter what happens, she would always give that smile. It somehow had a way of enchanting him. A way of calming his heart and making his heartbeat accelerate.
  • He always wished to see that bright smile every day. He could definitely give a leg for it.
  • But his wish didn't come true............
  • " Where are you right now, snacky" He muttered.
  • " I hope you are happy now where ever you are? Remember i promise to keep your smile all the days of your life? That is what i am doing, are you happy? Are you still smiling?" He said, a bitter smile hang on his lips.
  • " Even if you are now happy, i still long to see you and ask you just one question"
  • " But would i see you?"
  • He had no answer to this. However fate might possibly give him the answer.
  • ----------
  • Saying that Amelia was shocked was an understatement.
  • After seeing the face of the woman, she felt blood leave her face, as she turned pale. And the next moment, she angrily stood up and charged towards them.
  • She violently pushed the man away and raised her hand to give him a slap.
  • Pak!
  • The sound resonated in the room. She then swiftly turned towards the girl and drag her half naked body off the sofa and violently threw her on the ground. She sat on the lady, raining slaps and blows on her mercilessly.
  • Ethan was stunned for a moment. He never really knew that his docile and obedient little wife could be a tigeress.
  • He held his hot cheeks, which had gone red by now from the slap and gritted his teeth. He angrily dragged her off the lady and violently pushed her away.
  • Amelia, who was pushed, landed with a thud on the strong cold ground.
  • She turned to glance at him. He was carefully holding the lady, who was crying in his arms while he furiously glared at her.
  • Right now, she felt series of needles piercing her heart, still it began to bleed. She pressed her hand on her chest, watching them with sad eyes.
  • She finally mustered some strength to stand up, though she stumbled a little.
  • " Madison, why? Why did you do this?" She asked, facing the lady.
  • The lady pushed at his chest slightly and looked at her.
  • " Why you ask?" She repeated.
  • However, she did not answer.
  • " Why? Because i hate you"
  • " And because he was mine from the beginning. I just let you borrow him. That's it" She slowly said.
  • " What are you talking of? He is my husband and you seduced him, didn't you?" She retorted, with an hoerse voice.
  • " Of course not sister. He is your husband in the eyes of the public and in paper. But does he really love you and take you as a wife?"
  • Yes. Does he really love her? Or take her as his wife? What she only knows was that, in the past he had indeed treated her well and didn't force anything on her. And she had never really cared if he loved her or not. And just assumed that with time they will get used to each other and also come to love each other.
  • But now, being posed with such question, she didn't even know what to say.
  • " Quiet? Huh, Amelia stop thinking so highly of yourself. He had always been mine. If not for father who had supported you and made you marry him, he would have been married to me!" She stated with disdain and pure hatred clear in her voice.
  • " And now let what belongs to ceasar be given to ceasar and what belongs to God be given to God. Give up and just divorce sign the divorce papers. It will help all of us"
  • So she now knew the reason behind his sudden demand for a divorce.
  • She felt her blood boiled with anger and she advanced towards her and raised her hand to hit her.
  • However, she felt her body flew to the end of the room as she was thrown by someone with unrestrained strength.
  • " Touch her again and you will force me to really hurt you"
  • Amelia was in utter shock and disbelief. In all the years since she had known him, he had never once laid a finger on her to hurt her.
  • But today, he had done that repeatedly because of another woman, Who was her step-sister.
  • He didn't just jury her. He also humiliated her and her dignity.
  • She never believed the nice gentleman would one day become so cruel and heartless.
  • Had she really lost him....................
  • Not to anyone but to her step-sister.............
